NVBots Launches 3D Printer with Automated Part Remover

3D
printer maker NVBots has launched what it says
is the first 3D printer with an automated print remover that can be
controlled
remotely.

The
print remover, which moves objects from the
printer after they have been made, and the ability to allow users to
connect from any device with a browser — like a tablet or even a
smartphone — and
log into a website where they can submit files, direct print jobs and
manage
their queue allows use of the new NVPro without the need for an
onsite
operator.

The NVPro can run continuously from any device. At
the
same time, the company has a 3D printing curriculum around hands-on
learning to
assist teachers and provide service support.

In addition to the new patented parts remover,
there are
three components to the NVPro:

NVCloud, which allows users to send print jobs
from
anywhere at any time with live video. Because it is cloud-based, there
is no
software to install or limit to the number of users who can share the
printer;

NVLibrary, a collection of best practices,
curricula,
lesson plans and read-to-print parts; and

NVCare, a training and support system available
to users
for 12 months after purchase.

"Having access to a 3D printing solution like the
NVPro
is particularly useful, based on its automated part removal feature,"
said
Scott Bailey, managing director of MassChallenge Boston, an accelerator
that
has already begun using the 3D printer. "With the NVPro, we can
maintain a
steady queue of print jobs running, without requiring someone to
retrieve parts
each time they are printed."
